[@jordanfelt5978]

​​@@xusername1993 no my friend...you will not have ze zpisy garlic, I give you regular. Lol

[@hannaha4631]

Honestly I'm glad he didn't eat during the scene, gives the vibe of "I can't believe we're actually doing this..." that just makes it that much funnier.

[@melteddragon3174]

Yeah and also hes the leader and the most serious of the group, as a war veteran he was probally thinking it was ridiculous to eat at a resturant after saving the planet 😂

[@b0xman935]

​@@melteddragon3174You can also tell they immediately went to eat Shawarma since the Avengers are still in their suits And it's funny to imagine Steve,Nat and Clint aren't in the mood to eat except Thor who is enjoying himself while Tony and Bruce look bored😂

[@sadas3190]

Dad taking family of five out energy

[@jackdaone6469]

I took it to mean that he was just worn out and exhausted from the massive battle and was just decompressing, for lack of a better term.

[@achilles5318]

Chris evans with beard looks like Captain Price

[@erushi5503]

Live action of OG Cod modern warfare needs him to be Captain Price ahahaha

[@anirbanpaul2806]

Now i cant unseen it

[@Theuplaoder]

Could he do the voice though?

[@achilles5318]

@@Theuplaoder if ariel is now black Capt Price is american

[@BeeBumble24]

This gives me an idea

[@Rakushi_Snea]

I'd always assumed he'd already finished eating but couldn't keep with Thor going for a 5th serving 😂

[@gwdzee]

food coma lol

[@erizamisorafujoshi7002]

That also makes sense 😂

[@nicoledenel]

Also thought this😅

[@MorbiusBlueBalls]

and tony eating like he has the entire day for eating shwarma

[@cheriescott5766]

Honestly, yeah because everybody else looks like they’re like I am almost at my breaking point, especially black, widow, and cop was like no I am seriously done

[@Deucali0n666]

I just assumed he was real tired.

[@jackiefannin8616]

same :]

[@Yosdagoat]

Fax he was puttin in work

[@michellemorgan3667]

Same

[@ablindsquirrel2123]

Nnm

[@tanvvir8996]

I thought (given that he was born in like the 1930’s) he would find shawarma to be too ethnic

[@AngledOG_]

Imagine working at a shawarma restaurant and you see the entire fucking avengers crew walk in

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

It would be so fucking awesome

[@51OAKLANDER510]

Wouldve asked for a picture of them eating the shwarma

[@christiedelange3300]

And it was the first avengers movie

[@b0xman935]

I bet it would be awesome until Thor orders more and more food😂

[@sofiah6997]

Imagine you’re a shawarma restaurant worker and no one told you The Avengers were coming in to eat.. and you have no idea if shits about to go down or shit ALREADY went down

[@loganjacobi4630]

Honestly looked perfect the first time seeing it, he looks like he’s just had the worst battle of his life 😂 I think he nailed it

[@Newgodlove]

lol

[@opslocked8597]

Exactly

[@Fairy_Teeth]

Nah for real me and my dad loved it because having them all seem exhausted in different stages was perfect

[@jjmeer]

Yeah seeing this scene without knowing this information, he just looks exhausted from fighting lol

[@otbaht]

I'm too tired even to eat thats basically what i thought

[@Sammy_The_Umbreon]

Man looked like he just fought aliens and is currently contemplating life and how it got to this point.

[@castorvolkCH]

fun fact: this scene caused an explosion in Shawarma sales.

[@kieren33]

Legit saw this and a while after me and fellow coworkers went and got 1. SO GOOD. Now they don't taste good lol

[@Xaero324]

NGL i had some after this movie 😅

[@tatebones544]

Fun fact ..after this scene people started to say swarma dis meat making a jerk off hand motion during a hostile meet

[@superking-nicolaslucau7252]

Sheep gonna be sheep

[@castorvolkCH]

@@kieren33 depends on who you get it from. everybody makes sharwama differently.

[@Kevin-jb2pv]

I always assumed that Steve was just put off by food he had never heard of, but was too polite to not join everyone at the restaurant.

[@melonie_1510]

I just thought he looked tired, which makes complete sense since he just fought an army of Chitauri

[@solongdentahlplaan7975]

All the more reason to gorge. I thought he was just being a buzzkill as per usual.

[@CoryPchajek]

You ever run a marathon? It’s weird. The appetite is often terribly low directly following.

[@themgofficial9108]

👍👍👍👍

[@jjsstikbotvideos4421]

I think it looked fine! He just looked super tired from the fight like everybody else lol. Cool to know

[@marcosvillarreal1387]

He looks like he just saved the world

[@myamyaw772]

This is why keeping your crew members informed about work is extremely important.

[@antoniomares4958]

But look in reality it works, They are literally exhausted. And Cap is a WW2 solider who was literally unfrozened maybe a few weeks to a month ago. So he's still processing all the changes he has witness

[@NotRJ001]

I mean they could go that route for story wise.

[@jibanyanawesome8577]

Plus being that he still had that war mentality his CO was Problably still in the back of his brain. “

[@WillMcConnell-hv4xd]

Ya

[@buddygamesdev]

you can see Mark Ruffalo trying his best not to laugh

[@whitfieldhyde5957]

Fr, he was stuffing his face with food so he wouldn’t laugh 😂

[@storm1110]

I loved this scene I thought his behavior was intentional to show how tired he was and therefore the group was

[@daleg_-_]

they could've just let him sit with his back facing the camera instead of Hawkeye

[@NoahMoorman]

Yes that and chris is a big baby it was a day of work.

[@murphdawg9263]

Yeah. But it's cap. Not Hawkeye

[@NoahMoorman]

@@murphdawg9263 What?

[@brandonfinnegan8633]

The leader sits at the head of the table.

[@Jonas-ej7id]

My absolute favorite Mcu post credits scene. I really wish there were more like it connected to a little joke in the movie, rather than the ones setting up the multiverse lol

[@DogBrainDingus]

I always took it he was just too exhausted from the battle to even take a bite 😂

[@JeantheSecond-ip7qm]

It’s unnoticeable. He just looks really tired after all that happened.

[@davidkelly499]

Nothing like jumping in a time machine for a decade old video

[@taz1728]

Honestly Cap really wanted to try that shawarma Tony really hyped it up😂😂😂

[@EdwardTCBlake]

I just figured the dude had already finished eating. I mean it was a long day.

[@Cheesefist]

What really happened is Josh Whedon ordered food for everyone but Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evan’s is just too nice and gave her his food

[@thomasritter3391]

Whedon probably thought, "we only have 3 jokes per minute in this movie. CRAM IN ONE MORE!!!"

[@MrCaveman74]

Finally a "did you know" that actually shares something I didn't know!!

[@PeanutStrawberry]

I like though that Cap is just slouching over all like "I need another 70-year-nap in ice after this shit" xD

[@allen604]

Henry Cavil: "You got off easy, bro"

[@isaactelesco2141]

They literally could have had him where renner was sitting. Andnhustt laughing and holding the food

[@thirdyrey21]

Idk where I have heard this but some source said it was a stunt double because Chris Evans had scheduling issues since this was not a planned scene

[@יונתןטל-י1ע]

An actually solid and good video . Nice ❤

[@jeremypayne5078]

I always thought it was weird that he wasn't eating. Now it makes sense.

[@migueltheshort]

Bro switched to Captain America to Captain Price with a beanie and a beard

[@jordansimmons6530]

Real reason captain American was still thinking about to pronounce shawarma

[@FC_mania]

Joss Whedon seems to have a history of trying to film around a comic book actor’s facial hair during reshoots

[@superherobandaa3496]

Superman 😂😂

[@misterchubbikins]

Imagine going through all that bullshit for a mid credit scene.

[@omed911ful]

So Captain America would have definitely wanted some shwarma lmao

[@SlightlySteven]

I like to think he’s holding his face after getting clapped by his future self from endgame lmao

[@bn-tc2tk]

I like it. Cap might be too intimidated and unfamiliar with the menu options so would just say he wasn’t hungry out of embarrassment

[@janiceholcomb8490]

Probably cheaper than the CGI mustache removal for Henry Cavill lol

[@jamessweeney2710]

I thought he had cleaned up already lol

[@the3rdid485]

Honestly I thought it was perfect that he wasn't eating, it was a nice little juxtaposition and the way he's just resting there looks like he's just so sick of everyone's shit after everything that just happened and just wants to go home. It's kind of perfect.

[@holievans3268]

This isn't true lol one of the Avengers even mentioned this in an interview. This was filmed weeks after they finished the movie yes.. but he's laughing 😄

[@karenshort3880]

I agree. He even said he was laughing.

[@jacobharris954]

No it was filmed after the filmed was locked and just before L.A primer

[@therainbowveteran121]

After fighting an entire alien invasion for like the 2nd or so time. He was so tired he wasn't hungry for that extra cheesy shawarma.

[@shadowlancer45]

Nope actually its cool. Ofc that was an exhausting battle with robotic aliens. That resting of the face kind of candid, unexpectedly but perfectly fit the story👌

[@Respect12948]

Except the normal ass humans were fine…

[@peko7553]

not to mention he just came from a 50+ year hibernation

[@lottilendvai2217]

They can make a raccoon speak but not a beard disappear😂

[@DarthArachnious]

I just like the idea that he was tired and asleep in his glove.

[@OneWeekRainisu]

Tbh it makes it more believable because Cap just looked tired af

[@owengibby]

Fun Facts they got a stunt double for that scene so they didn’t use Chris Evans

[@AlmightyFilms]

No.

[@davesargent7304]

"A stunt dounble" 😂🤣🤣

[@owengibby]

@@AlmightyFilms nah it's true that isn't chris evans

[@AlmightyFilms]

@@owengibby It's not. He was there.

[@WatermellonStrawberry679]

If i see the fucking avengers walk to my shawarma restaurant i'd scream

[@alegon2]

Because he tried to put ketchup in za shawarma

[@Ejtoorim]

Dont do zat

[@FalseProphetFallacy]

Do you want ze bebsi wit za shawarma? 🤨

[@HopperYTRealChannel]

Short answer : Chris Evans had a beard that he grew for a different movie he was in

[@davesargent7304]

You didn't watch the video, did you?

[@d.a.channel3820]

He was just resting from kicking so much Ace!🇺🇸💯

[@MrHillBilly-j7f]

Chris Evans always grows that beard after each Marvel movie expect IW.

[@delroyhewitt7378]

No ketchup on ketchup on the shawarma my friend!

[@fionnokeeffe3799]

Have a bebsi

[@saurabh7489]

I liked to believe that he was just too disciplined to be eating like a slob.

[@muanachhakchhuak7161]

Why din he just use fake mustache and beard

[@blueberrytart15]

This is your sign to watch Snowpiercer! Incredible movie

[@Fathan.r]

Dont forget the bebsi

[@courtneydurham8429]

It worked for me. Captain America looked whipped after a hard day's work in that scene.

[@chriskaza7228]

It's actually because Captain America doesn't like arabs

[@tysonb3568]

Lololol….and everyone loved that Scene…. Great touch.

[@BookOfEnchantments]

Ngl, looks like he was taking a little nap while the others was eating at least for me it look like it.

[@vincentmcgettigan7948]

Thats pretty cool. To me I always thought he just ate really fast and was just sitting there chilling.

[@frankcutugno3576]

Why didn't he use CGI, like he did with poor Henry Cavill in Josstice League? Oh.....that's why! 😅☠

[@disneyeverything5584]

By the way that scene was no where near LA. This scene was film the night of NYCC at like twelve o’clock and they even mentioned it in the Marvel panel and fans got excited.

[@edo_chiarimin_2204]

or cap it s just a boomer so he think like oh i won t eat this strange food

[@KrayZky]

Looked like he was falling asleep from exhaustion. Thought that was great. Not every hero is hungry after a long battle.

[@Cowabunga_man]

What is cgi really they couldn’t do it?

[@normalhuman1825]

First, about* not is*. Second, no. If you remember Justice League tried to get rid of Henry Cavill mustache with cgi, but it was super noticeable

[@SpicyPotatoe]

This scene was filmed after the red carpet showing. Post-production was definitely complete and they probably would have rather spent the few hundred bucks to do it this way rather than the few thousand that it would have cost to get people to CGI it to a good standard.

[@nicksterdisneyandpixarclub]

Poor Cap, poor Evans 😞

[@dominicduran6986]

I'd be pissed!

[@Trainer_Red.....]

The scene is actually a goof towards a reference of RDJ always eating during set.

[@mr7oclock346]

I kind of like that he doesn't eat in the scene. When I seen it the first time, I thought "Damn, Cap's so stressed out and tired that he lost his apatite.

[@jasonbean2764]

This has to be one of the funniest things I've ever heard!:)

[@kratos13241]

Sha warmer 🤣🤣

[@lucaleone4331]

Damn. Snow piercer feels so much older than avengers. That really ages the movie knowing he did both around that time

[@jackcrassus168]

I thought he was just letting the magnitude of the events sink in

[@williamwinder3466]

I like that Cap just sat there as if to say he's too tired to do anything.

[@NY_7]

It would have really been out of character for the very polite Steve Roger's to have his elbow on the table with his head resting against his hand.

[@thiccramen6543]

Ah back when marvel wasn’t getting ruined by Disney

[@richard2461956]

Joss "Why didn't I just have Henry Cavill cover his mouth for the JL reshoots?" 😂

[@Nejineto]

I thought that works perfectly that scene. Always goes all out. Gives it every thing he’s got. Bro was tired I thought.

[@onefatpiggy]

They put so much effort in an added scene that lasted for seconds. I appreciate that

[@akpawar651]

Snowpiercer was such a good movie

[@clairemadeinheaven]

THE CLIP YOU USED OF CHRIS EVANS LOL

[@Rizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

Chris Evans kinda looks like Captain America a little bit

[@zack4527]

Why didn’t they go back and film a like 5 secoond addition to a scene at the beginning where captain America says he hates shawarma so it would be an easter egg in one of those shorts where they say “Chris wasn’t eating shawarma because at the beginning he said he didn’t like it”

[@davishueter]

5 years later Joss will have a similar problem with Henry Cavill in Justice League

[@tiandi5585]

Worth it. Snow Piercer was awesome!

[@fallonnelson2141]

Snowpiercer is everything I loved that movie and TV show

[@Yaami2023]

That chris evans as captain price, alan ritchson as simon "ghost" riley, liam hemsworth as john "soap" mactavish and Tyrel jackson williams as gaz and BOOM ! Real life call of duty action movie

[@Loki_Lover_]

And then you've got poor Loki tied up outside😂

[@AsalxonSharifboyeva-rr5xn]

Old days😢

[@CJ_1406]

Why didn't he just switch seats with Renner so that the camera would be at his back. That way, he can eat while the beard is covered.

[@Epiales06]

FUN FACT! The shawarma scene was inspired by the way that the cast of Angel acted after filming the scene in which Fred (a much beloved character) dies.

[@adrianjackson5821]

i feel like a fake beard is easier than a fake jaw

[@jordangalvony312]

I think it worked for the scene and showed how tired he was after the whole endeavor. really vibed with how tired he looked when tony came back from the dead after falling from that sky portal.

[@Krystalmyth]

I liked it. Added to how exhausted and beat up they were.

[@ZacharyM08]

Imagine walking into a restaurant and seeing the avengers all around a table💀
